Το Audio-Video Revolution φιλοξενεί δοκιμή του AV προενισχυτής της Sunfire, Theater Grand Processor V (TGP-5).
"Offering HDMI switching, video transcoding, an integrated AM/FM tuner, the ability to handle seemingly any surround sound format and direct stereo bypass for two-channel listening, as well as extensive options for controlling an independent second zone, few processors in the world of home theater offer what this one does, especially for its modest retail price of $3,499.

Conclusion
The Sunfire Theater Grand Processor V provides amazing theater sound. It was able to clearly discern a wide range of dynamics and gave smooth transitions for an exceptional home theater experience, reproducing voices clearly through all my TV and movie use. It has a strong analog section, video transcoding, a powerful tuner, an independent second zone, a vast array of inputs and balanced and single-ended outputs with the ability to control up to four subwoofers, a great new look and abundant advanced control options for both the main and a secondary zone. Add in HDMI switching and even a high output MC phono input and you have the most versatile processor on the planet that even a home theater newbie could manage to set up solo.
The Sunfire Theater Grand Processor 5 is unquestionably the easiest preamp/processor I have ever used. From set-up to day-to-day use, you couldn’t ask for it to be simpler. The surround effects offered by this processor are a joy to listen to, and the video transcoding makes its use with older video sources a breeze, obviating the need for multiple connections to your display. I wish the video transcoding went to HDMI and that the set-up menus were output to this format, allowing a single digital video connection to your display with the use of set-up menus.
If you are in the market for a reasonably-priced home theater processor and tuner, want ease of use, loads of flexibility and future-proofing with HDMI switching, along with a strong analog section and excellent surround effects, you owe it to yourself to listen to the new Sunfire Theater Grand Processor 5. It comes full of treats, with no hidden tricks."
